He does this in front of our 7-month old son, who stares at him with a worried look or cries. My husband doesn't seem to care - he does things that he knows will upset both me and our son. I know he's frustrated because of our house and finances, but I am too and don't act that way. When he's like this, I just want to leave and take my son with me. What do I do?

When your child is there watching, looking worried and crying, he is also learning. Being exposed to this behavior for a long period of time, he'll grow believing this is proper behavior so that's how he'll choose to act in different situations as well. I believe if your husband doesn't choose to change, it may be time to move with your son.
